There were previously no tests around Dashboard serialization to
protobuf, so this patch adds coverage for that. Also, the `go-cmp`
package has been introduced to replace our usage of `reflect.DeepEqual`
going forward because it has better comparison features that make it
more stable across Go versions and produces nice diffs in tests when
they fail, reducing the need for debug lines and manual inspection.
"Axis" is a more consistent and appropriate name. Also, the formatting
the protobufs was all over the place, so this has been made consistent
using a first-column \t. Furthermore, a vim modeline was added to the
bottom to make it easier for editors to autoconfigure themselves to the
right format, since protobufs are not something that we edit everyday.
Also, 32-bit values have been substituted for 64-bit values in Protobuf
definitions.
Cells now have axes which represent their visualization's viewport. This
updates the Swagger documentation to reflect this.
Things to be aware of
=====================
The form of "axes" is that of a map<string,object>, which is represented
in Swagger by an "additionalProperties" key (search for "string to model
mapping" here: https://swagger.io/specification/).
The frontend would like to store viewport information for each cell so
that visualizations are zoomed to the proper extents upon rendering.
This adds a property to cells called "axes" which takes the following
shape:
```
{
"axes" : {
"y" : {
"bounds" : [
0,
2
]
},
"y2" : {
"bounds" : [
1,
3
]
}
}
}
```
Bounds specify the visible range for the axis, and are a 2-tuple of the
form [lower, upper]. Bounds are not implicitly inclusive or
exclusive--that determination is left for clients to make. Also, there
are no restrictions on the naming of axes.
